hello Your messages have been going out, it seems to all of the subscribers ok. but no one from the rootsweb,palo pint site wants to do any thing. Maybe they should remove them selves from claiming to be the host. --- Larry McQueary <mcqueary@attbi.com> wrote: > Send a message to txpalopi-l-request@rootsweb.com > with the subject > "unsubscribe" > > If this doesn't work, reply to my email and I'll > help you further. > > Larry > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: E Schrock [mailto:edges@gci-net.com] > > Sent: Sunday, January 06, 2002 11:20 AM > > To: TXPALOPI-L@rootsweb.com > > Subject: unsubscribe problem > > > > HELP! > > > > I've tried for two months to unsubscribe from this > list without any > > success. > > The host says she doesn't handle this task.

John, There is a proper way to unsubscribe. Sometimes you may have to address the list administrator to get unsubscribed; for example, if your email address has changed. Like anything else you do with a computer, if it's not done exactly right you don't get the results you seek. Quit blaming the host. Usual way to unsubscribe: Send a message containing only the word unsubscribe in the body of the message to: TXPALOPI-L-request@rootsweb.com (or -D in Digest mode) If your address has changed: Send a message telling the list administrator your address has changed and ask to be unsubscribed; be sure to give your old email address. Send to: (1) TXPALOPI-L-admin@rootsweb.com with some lists it works better if the address is in the form: (2) TXPALOPI-admin@rootsweb.com Try (1) first. If that doesn't work, try (2).
